Very windy !
Posted , 5 users are following.
A fairly new symptom for me - basically very flatulent. Being crude here - I could fart for Britain ! Is it another symptom of getting older, among others ? Used to be a source of amusement when I was younger, hearing pensioners blowing off while in the shops. Well, I have reached that stage now, albeit recently. Anybody suffering like this ? What do you take ?
I have just been diagnosed with 50 stomach polyps (not cancerous) fortunately.

Hello Angela
Yes!! I can relate to this myself.
As we get older our guts become more sluggish! The worst thing to do is take anything to do with making you do it more!
Look at your diet and see what could possibly be making you break wind more than usual. There are certain foods that make us 'pop' more than other foods.
Do you eat a lot of greens? That helps to keep you regular. Avoid gassy drinks if you can.A trip to your health food shop might help you too.Holland and Barratt are a great help what you could take and relieve you a bit.But also 50! Polyps in your stomach certainly doesn't help either. What will they do with your stomach? Give you medication? Or just leave them there?
You poor thing! You don't say how old you are but I'm 53 and I do get a fair bit of uctulence myself.but I know certain foods are offenders that can cause it more.il check and get back to you on this one.??Liz??

Thanks for you answer. I realise there are foods that make it worse, but unfortunately when you are prone to constipation, you need those things like prunes to sort you out. You can't win sometimes.
I am 74 years of age and my digestion is not good now, especially with 50 polyps. They are going to leave them where they are, because an operation can bring other issues. They do give me jip at times. Oh the joys of getting old !
